Subject:
How many "fake Beatles" groups were there? More than I ever thought.
This was a treat to find and watch. I've been a fan of The Beatles as well as each of the members individually for about 40 years. I never knew there were so many "knock-off" groups nor that the lengths to which they went to force a (non-) similarity were so extreme. It's hilarious to see how so many people tried to cash in on the success of The Beatles and how ludicrous it was for practically all of them to even try.
This video is highly recommended for Beatles fans particularly and also for music history fans, not to mention just anyone who likes to laugh. This is funny even if you're not a Beatles fan. Give it a watch. I think you'll like it.
